Lately 6/14/2018

Well, this week has been wonderful being away! I'll have a lot to tackle once I'm back but it's well worth it! This weekend, for Father's Day, my dad and I are playing a Father/Daughter golf outing at our club.

My sister Callie is most definitely the golfer in our family and since she is in Charlotte, my dad is stuck with me- the not-so-good golfer. Callie was varsity captain of the golf team... I was varsity cheerleading captain. Needless to say, my cheerleading skills won't be helping me too much this weekend, ha!

I'll be back next week with some Nantucket recaps. I can't wait to share all about my trip!Wearing: I shared this dress on Instagram earlier this week and I just love it! It's so classic and easy to wear dressed up or down. I loved it for a day of travel with sneakers and a sweater!

Eating: I am SO obsessed with Kettle brand chips- my favorite is honey dijon. But, while I was in the airport, I spotted Dill pickle Kettle brand chips and figured why not! They are SO good. If you are a pickle chip fan, these are by far my favorite!

Drinking: I am not a soda drinker anymore. In high school and college I was obsessed with Diet Coke but thankfully cut that one out. I will have a Coke every once in a while when I get a craving. I was in the airport the other day and they had a machine that had diet vanilla coke and I was in total heaven. It was such a good treat!

Reading: I'm not typically into murder/mystery books, but this one really has me intrigued. Have any of you read The Two Mrs. Grenvilles?

Reading II: I am so intrigued by the idea of the Hyperloop and I love reading the up-to-date news stories about it. I read this article a little while ago and it's so interesting and makes it seem like it will happen sooner than later!

Pittsburgh-ing: Some friends got together last weekend and headed to Heinz Field. Top Golf is opening soon and they opened a weekend-long driving range in the stadium. It was really cool but also so odd to be playing golf on a football field!! We had a blast and we can't wait until Top Golf is open so we can have more fun!

Howdy! I could have sworn I've visited this blog before but after looking at a few of the posts I realized it's new to me. Anyways, I'm certainly pleased I stumbled upon it and I'll be bookmarking it and checking back frequently!

Regarding 'The Two Mrs Grenvilles', Dominick Dunne is one of my favorite "guilty pleasure" authors! Most of his novels are Roman à clefs, so it is a lot of fun to try and match up who the characters are/were in real life. 'A Season in Purgatory' is my favorite by him, based on the Martha Moxley murder in Greenwich. Other good ones by him are 'An Inconvenient Woman' and 'People Like Us'. Definitely easy, good beach/pool/lake reads!
